To make our Christmas a bit more Christ focused this year, I wanted to read through some Advent scriptures with the girls. There are so many wonderful ideas online!
We purchased Advent calendars when we were at the Christmas Markt in Saarbrucken last weekend and I found these daily coloring pages with a scripture attached. So, each night after dinner, we’re going to have a devotional time of talking about the Christmas story and reading the scripture verse from their coloring page. Then they can enjoy their chocolate from the Advent Calendar as they color their pictures. I’m going to make a book out of all of their pictures.
Tonight was actually our fourth night of doing this and the girls have really started looking forward to this time. We’re thinking that it may turn into a great family devotional time.
